collectors, I mean analytics.js... These js files collect the events from web app and sent them to the backend. You can charge people on these files, but who is gonna pay? But once the events are in your backend, customers have to pay for getting them out and for storage as well.

Who is going to pay for anlaytics.js? Segment, the maintainers of analytics.js, did $50MM in revenue last year.
